8. Protect rights

To create a truly equitable society we will:

  • Ensure women’s rights are respected. Enforce pay equity.
  • Honour the Kelowna Accord and resolve land claims in ways that do not extinguish aboriginal title.
  • Expand the rights of gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and transsexual Canadians.
  • Enhance support for disabled people.
  • Ease the income support levels required for family-sponsorship.
